Smelting: the raw materials of the weathering plate are put into blast furnace or electric furnace for smelting. Through the process of high temperature melting, reduction and refining, impurities in the raw material are removed to obtain pure molten iron.
Alloying: in the smelting process, alloying elements are added to the molten iron in accordance with the predetermined direction, and the alloying elements are evenly distributed in the molten iron through sufficient stirring and reaction. This step is essential to improve the corrosion resistance of the sheet.
Blooming: The alloyed hot metal is cast into a billet, which is then rolled by the blooming mill to produce a steel plate with a certain thickness and width.
Finish rolling: After the first roll, the steel plate is further rolled by the finish mill to achieve the desired thickness and accuracy. At the same time, the finishing process also helps to improve the internal structure and properties of the steel plate.
In order to improve the weather resistance and mechanical properties of the plate, it is usually necessary to heat treat the rolled steel plate. The heat treatment process includes steps such as heating, insulation and cooling. By controlling the heating temperature and cooling rate, the internal organization of the steel plate is transformed, so as to improve its corrosion resistance and strength.
Such sheets form a dense protective oxide film in the natural environment, but in order to further improve their corrosion resistance, surface treatment is usually required. Common surface treatment methods include sandblasting, shot peening, pickling and passivation. These treatment methods can remove impurities such as oxide scale, oil stain and rust on the surface of steel plate, and increase the roughness of the surface of steel plate, which is conducive to the formation of oxidation protection film.
